A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

That's actually not that bad. Of course missing all the smells and taste of the text, allusions and double meanings, but as a very coarse synopsis it'll do.

Oh it did give a longer response initially, then I asked to reduce the sentence to its essence, just like the ad from this post did. The longer version was:

A woman occasionally prepares a meal for a man, including a variety of foods and drinks, potentially exotic or unusual. Despite her efforts and the variety she provides, the man often dismisses the meals disdainfully. Even when she's struggling physically (with shaking joints), she keeps trying to please him with her cooking. But no matter how hard she tries, he often rejects her efforts, treating her with scorn. Despite his harsh treatment, the woman remains safe.

Interesting. I'd definitely skim through such a version, albeit it totally abolishes the intricacies of FW.

Yep, but it opens it up to a broader audience. Even though that's probably exactly the opposite of what he intended.

Many parts of FW work a bit like an abstract painting where each viewer finds their own interpretation, each of those equally valid and independent of what the author possibly intended. An AI dumbed down version would just show one path through the work, the one it thinks is the main road. But yes, at best, such version could sparkle an interest and function as a gateway to the work. Or extinguish all interest for good.
